First, the bad news: there is no magic pill, potion, or treatment that can turn a balding scalp into a lush head of hair. Our best option for restoring hair lost to genetic pattern baldness is hair transplant surgery. There are, however, proven, non-surgical interventions that can help stop or slow down the progressive nature of hair loss. The following interventions constitute a first line of defense in the battle against hair loss:

• Medications, such as Propecia and Minoxidil
  
• Low-Level Laser Light Therapy
• Supplements, Diet, and Prevention of Mechanical Stress
